heat is considered a position of higher temperature.... Temperature on the hand is only a measure of a heat condition

Which is hotter f or c?

Neither is hotter. They are different scales and use different measurements for heat. 25C is hotter than 25F, but they are different temperatures.


Why does a properly finished valve seat have three different angles?

For proper form, operation, and heat disburstment.


What kinds of tools do scientists use to make measurements?

Why different fractions of crude oil are collected at different temperatures?

Because crude oil is a mixture of different chemicals - mainly hydrocarbons - that have different evaporation temperatures. Roughly speaking, when the crude is heated, its temperature rises until it reaches the lowest vaporisation temperature. The temperature then remains more or less steady as the heat input is used as the latent heat of vaporisation for the relevant compound. When [almost] all of that compound has evaporated, the temperature starts rising again until it reaches the next varorisation temperature, and so on.


What is water equivalent?

Water equivalent is a measure used to express the heat capacity of a material in terms of the equivalent mass of water that would absorb the same amount of heat. It is calculated by determining how much heat is required to change the temperature of the material and then comparing that to the heat needed to change the temperature of a specific mass of water. This concept is useful in thermodynamics and calorimetry for simplifying calculations involving heat transfer. Essentially, it allows for the comparison of different substances in terms of their thermal properties relative to water.
